Can You Smoke Cheese On A Kettle? Hell Yes You Can!

[Mikey]

After yesterdays' cheese smoke on the Bandera, I had 3 more lbs of cheese left and wondered if I could smoke cheese on my Kettle. Yes I can. 2 lbs of cheddar and 1 lb of pepperjack. I used the same set-up in my Kettle that I use on all my indirect smokes. I'm using plum sawdust for this one as I thought the pellets would be too much heat. Started this at 09:45 with an air temp of 58.5 degrees. One row should give me 4 hrs of smoke...........I hope


AMNPS lit and the smoke is happening. Lid ready to go on.

So good so far. Time will tell on this one, but I do believe it's going to work.

Never seen it done here before here on a Kettle, so I thought I'd give it a shot.

Heck...you could use Alton's cardboard box with that Amazin' I think... Altho the binders/glues in a box worry me... even at low heat.

with the amazin smoker no prob... i dont think you will get 4 hours from the one leg of wood dust though... they dont raise the temps in the smoker hardly at all. great for cheese, or bacon and hams too.

I kinda thought the same thing with the pellets too, but 1 leg did last 4 hrs.
I've got the dust packed in tighter than a bulls ass at fight time, so it might

One row with the dust should get you 4 hours pretty easy

Apparently I'm not packing it in as tight.

The dust only lasted 2 hrs. so I did a quick addition and will let it finish. Probably should have filled the one row with more dust from the onset, but no biggy.

Cool Mikey!. Kettles can do anything.

All finished up & now to vac pac. A bit more color change, but I think that's due to the smaller space of the Kettle which means the cheese took on more smoke. A 3 wk nap in the fridge and it's time to give it the taste test. I be lovin' this A-MAZE-N smokin' device Thanks for following along.
